Garlic Bread is a classic side dish and perfect with everything from Baked Ziti to a juicy steak dinner or even Oven Baked Chicken Breasts! We used to buy garlic bread at the store until we realized how quick, easy and tasty it is to make it at home!
Garlic bread is a favorite for everyone and I’ve bought the foil wrapped loaves at the grocery forever. Now I make my own and it tastes so much better (plus I make sure the garlic butter goes all the way to the edges)! Nearly every supermarket or corner store sells baguettes or loaves of fresh bread and they’re inexpensive.Making your own thick sliced homemade garlic bread is a snap and it makes the whole kitchen smell oh-so-good!
Toss on a little bit of parmesan (or cheddar) to create a cheesy garlic bread that goes with everything from Fresh Tomato Soup to a side for sopping up sauce in the bottom of your spaghetti bowl!
Homemade Garlic Bread Recipe
Craving garlic bread and don’t have a baguette handy? Making it with regular bread (or even leftover hot dog or hamburger buns) will do in a pinch, especially if you use a homemade garlic bread spread recipe!
The best kind of bread will be a thick baguette that can hold the spread or a delicious French bread. In the end you will want it to be hot and chewy throughout and a little toasty on the edges.
Feel free to sprinkle some parmesan cheese on both sides. This is optional, but adds a little crispy, cheesy goodness to it! Then bake both halves until toasty!
Easy Garlic Bread
Kind of like a Baked Potato, I most often cook garlic bread without wrapping in foil as I prefer it to be toasted and lightly browned. If you prefer a softer bread, after spreading the butter, place the two halves back together and wrap the bread in foil. Bake about 15 minutes or until heated through.
Yes, most definitely!! This delicious homemade garlic bread can be frozen successfully! Simply make it, wrap in foil and then wrap with plastic wrap. Let it thaw naturally or remove the plastic wrap and bake it in a 300°F oven until it warm and the butter is melted!

Of course, a classic, easy spaghetti and meatballs dinner needs garlic bread for dipping so I went on a quest that involved several loaves of bread, chopped garlic, real butter and herbs. It also involved a few stomach aches (hey I’m I’m human and sometimes you can’t stop at one slice)!
But alas, we landed on a delightful, mouth-watering garlic bread recipe that’s 1000x better than the store-bought kind and that I can’t stop making.
Best Garlic Bread Recipe
This homemade garlic bread recipe requires super simple ingredients, so trust me when I say you’ll back to it time and time again. Here’s what you’ll need to make it:
If you like cheesy garlic bread, feel free to add 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella! You’ll sprinkle it on in the last 2 minutes of baking (so that it doesn’t get too crispy on top).
If you like crispier garlic bread, bake it for 3-5 minutes more (but watch it carefully so that it doesn’t get too toasted). If you like it softer, take it out closer to 10 minutes. You can also wrap the bread in aluminum foil before baking it if you like softer garlic bread.

Luckily for you (and definitely for me) I’ve gone ahead and done all the testing and retesting for us and came up with the absolute best garlic bread recipe! It was hard work, but someone had to take one for the team š
Recipe For Homemade Garlic Bread
It all started on my birthday. We had gone out to a super popular Italian restaurant in town. And the first thing that I ordered on the menu was, of course, the truffled garlic bread. I had seen it all over my instagram and I was ready to make a meal out of it.
Holy cannoli! It was the perfect toasty bread. Golden brown and exploding with flavor, sprinkled with parmesan cheese, garlic, and fresh parsley. Their version also came with a scoop of creamy ricotta and tons of shaved Grana Padano on top. Ricotta and garlic bread are amazing for a special occasion. And you know that carbohydrates don’t count on your birthday and all!
My homemade version is inspired by that but when I want garlic bread on a weeknight to serve alongside my bowl of pasta or homemade soups, I want a straight-up crispy baguette rubbed down with parsley garlic butter and served alongside a boatful of marinara sauce!
Ultimate Garlic Bread Spread
You can, and though it will shorten the prep time, I find that it can be a bit tricky to not over pulse. During recipe testing, I tried making a batch of garlic butter in the food processor and found that you can very easily overwork the mixture and end up with green garlic bread! This happens because the parsley gets overworked and the butter adapts that green hue. But it does work if you don’t mind the color!
Yes, you can absolutely double the ingredients in the garlic bread recipe and keep the garlic butter in the fridge for later. I do suggest bringing the garlic butter to a spreadable temperature so it doesn’t tear through the bread when spreading. Prepared garlic butter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
You can! I would butter the bread, put it back together, wrap it in aluminum foil, and then freeze in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag until you’re ready to bake. I do suggest allowing the bread to thaw in the fridge so that you can pull it apart and bake it.
The Best Homemade Air Fryer Garlic Bread
You can always top the bread with a handful of shredded mozzarella cheese before popping it in the oven. The baking time may vary a bit, so make sure to keep an eye on it. The cheese will add a bit more protein to the whole thing too!
